Key Features

  • Multi-language code detection
  • Markdown code block extraction
  • Language-specific validation
  • Configurable allow/block lists
  • Risk scoring system

Configuration Options

  • languages: List of programming languages to monitor
  • is_blocked: Mode selection
    • True: Listed languages are blocked
    • False: Listed languages are allowed
  • model: philomath-1209/programming-language-identification

Output Format

  • sanitized_prompt: The analyzed text
  • is_valid: Boolean indicating if code meets criteria
  • risk_score: Detection confidence score (0-1)

Use Cases

  • Code submission platforms
  • Documentation systems
  • Educational platforms
  • Code review tools
  • Security validation systems

Note: For complete code blocking, consider using the BanCode scanner in conjunction with this scanner. This provides an additional layer of security.

Tip: Regularly update your language allowlist/blocklist based on your application's needs and security requirements. Consider implementing additional validation for potentially harmful code patterns.
